A Disulfide‐Sticker Strategy for Marine Adhesive Coatings: From Deciphering Self‐Assembly Mechanism to Functional Application in Hair Regeneration

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A disulfide‐sticker strategy, coupled with Ca2+ coordination, drives the hierarchical self‐assembly of a recombinant scallop adhesive protein into fishnet‐like nanostructures, affording a coating with versatile wet adhesion and intrinsic antioxidant activity. This biocompatible coating markedly promotes hair regeneration by activating follicular niches,

JAK-STAT1 as therapeutic target for EGFR deficiency-associated inflammation and scarring alopecia

EMBO Molecular Medicine
The hair follicle stem cell niche is an immune-privileged microenvironment, characterized by reduced antigen presentation, thus shielding against permanent immune-mediated tissue damage. In this study, we demonstrated the protective role of hair follicle-

Harmonizing Rigidity and Flexibility: Embedding COF Quantum Dots Into Extracellular Matrix Gel as Carbon Monoxide Depot for Acoustically Triggered Time‐Programmable Anti‐Infective Therapy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A rigid‑flexible integrated CO depot is engineered by embedding rigid COFQDs into a flexible ECM gel network. The rigid framework enables high‑capacity CO storage and sonodynamic bacterial killing, while the flexible ECM gel controls sustained CO release, collectively eradicating multidrug‑resistant infection and promoting scarless healing.

Inhibition of the Hippo pathway by verteporfin reduces the proliferation and stemness of rat hair follicle neural crest stem cells under hypoxia

FASEB BioAdvances
Hair follicle neural crest stem cells reside in the bulge region of the outer root sheath of hair follicles, originate from the ectoderm, and have multidirectional differentiation potential, making them ideal candidates for tissue engineering ...

Role of the Wnt/β-Catenin Signaling Pathway in Mediating Outer Root Sheath Stem Cells to Promote Hair Follicle Regeneration and Skin Wound Healing in Mice

Cells
Hair follicle (HF) stem cells are multipotent adult stem cells that play a key role in the hair follicle cycle. However, it remains poorly understood how the outer root sheath (ORS)—specifically, the stem cells in the bulge region of the hair follicle ...

Hair follicle epidermal stem cells define a niche for tactile sensation

eLife, 2018
The heterogeneity and compartmentalization of stem cells is a common principle in many epithelia, and is known to function in epithelial maintenance, but its other physiological roles remain elusive.

Dermal and epidermal cell functions in the growth and regeneration of hair follicles and other skin appendages [PDF]

, 1998
Epithelial-mesenchymal interactions are central to the development of skin and skin appendages in vertebrates. These interactions continue throughout adult life and underpin the cyclic growth and loss of hair in mammals. While the molecular basis of such
